/**
 * The listener interface for receiving component events.
 * The class that is interested in processing a component event
 * either implements this interface (and all the methods it
 * contains) or extends the abstract <code>ComponentAdapter</code> class
 * (overriding only the methods of interest).
 * The listener object created from that class is then registered with a
 * component using the component's <code>addComponentListener</code> 
 * method. When the component's size, location, or visibility
 * changes, the relevant method in the listener object is invoked,
 * and the <code>ComponentEvent</code> is passed to it.
 * <P>
 * Component events are provided for notification purposes ONLY;
 * The AWT will automatically handle component moves and resizes
 * internally so that GUI layout works properly regardless of
 * whether a program registers a <code>ComponentListener</code> or not.
